sustainability: get used to it

I love this blog post from the site little green submarine, because not only does it talk about how sustainable building and thinking is the way to go, but also that it is here to stay. This mind set shouldn't be skipped, since in order to sustain our planet for hundreds of more years, we need to be conscious of our impact. Whether it's for daily life, eating, building, travel or clothing we should be extremely educated about how to sustain ourselves.

My motto: "Clothing isn't optional, your fabric content is."

" Anyone out there who still thinks sustainable building design, construction and operations are fads, should think again. Regardless of how you feel about climate change, sustainability is here to stay. And all signs point to a time in the not-too-distant future when retailers and other commercial building owners won’t have a choice—sustainability will be mandated, not voluntary."
